Memories of mobility. Happy and scary – not in the middle.
Being stuck in the old slam door train carriage with a mad woman. Nearly being marooned at the cinema in Kilmarnock (The Incredible Journey) because all the bus fare had been spent on sweets.
Vivid fear of being marooned or stuck – out of control.
And the golden freedom of traveling by yourself when you are small.
Some of the small detail and imagery is there forever: the smell of the upholstered seats in the train carriage; the time (0819 – not 0820) of the morning train from Stewarton to Glasgow in the 1960s (for those interested, it is now 0805 or 0832).
I was talking to a lovely woman on the train on Monday and she also recalled these trains very vividly: “Coffin Carriages” she called them.
What is it about the old slam door railway compartments that make them so emotive?
